  • When do you mute a book on the feed?

    Hello! Random question that popped on my mind as I was browsing the site - when do you mute a book, or, what type of books do you mute? For me, thus far, I've basically muted popular books that I don't intend to read because they don't interest me when they show up on my feed. But, oddly enough, I don't mute books I hated...

  • HOW DO I MOTIVATE MYSELF TO READ??

    i have tried everything. well not everything, but quite a few different things. i’ve been reading 1-10 pages a day just to keep my streak. how do i fix this?

    things i’ve tried: ❤️ random number generators/wheels ❤️ “just read for ten minutes, you’ll want to read more after the ten minutes are over” ❤️ one page for every like ❤️ can’t buy/ do a specific thing until i reach my reading goal

    id be willing to try these strategies again if any of them are good and worked for you !!!

    I thought I didn't like Aspen, but I think I just don't like any of the characters in this book. All this was was America flipflopping between choosing Maxon or Aspen depending on who was standing in front of her. There was absolutely no communication between any of the characters, and they all acted solely based on what they wanted for themselves. It also seems like America lost all her brain cells because she kept doing stupid thing after stupid thing.

    I genuinely didn't think I would enjoy this as much as I did. Granted, I did find the characters annoying at times, and the plot was really predictable. I wish I had read this when I was younger because I'm sure I would have eaten up the whole series. I do plan on continuing because the way this book ended left a lot to be desired (I've read enough fanfiction based on this plot to know how it ends, but I need closure). My favourite thing about it was probably the premise, and my absolute least favourite thing was Aspen. I hope he gets what's coming to him.

    This took me a while to get into because the start is very slow. Once it actually gets going, it's very hard to put this book down. The characters are very well written and feel like they have real relationships and problems, which seems to be rare in fantasy stories. There were some plot points that I wonder if they were supposed to be twists because they were pretty obvious to me, but it doesn't take away from my enjoyment. There were a lot of perspectives thrown in, but I feel like it was done very well and I was never confused about who we were following. I also really liked the Scottish feel of the book.

  • Library Savings

    I didn't know what else to call this. But does anyone else check the receipt that you get when checking out library books and see the total $$ for what you saved? I don't know why, but I always like seeing how much I save each time I check books out from the library.

    Right now I have saved $499.72 just by visiting the library.
